The BTEC Extended Certificate in Digital Games Production focuses on the development skills required for the games design industry, leading to the development of a game. You will complete five units, taken directly from industry expectations. Unit 3 includes building a foundation of digital skills required to complete the course whilst also allowing you to create a working game for your external exam. In Unit 13, you will be taught the theory of game design to better understand requirements, consumer expectations and trends. Then you will design and create a functional game. You will use industry standard software such as Maya and Unreal Engine to model assets and environments in Unit 40 and 41 as well as animating them for Unit 43.
